Anyone heard anything about Benayoun to Chelsea?

Yep done deal according to many of the Liverpool related websites. I have to say I find it strange that Chelsea would show the door to both Ballack and Cole yet sign Benayoun!!

Re: Close Season Football Chat : Tue Jun 15, 2010 9:20 am  

would be a good signing for chelsea if the reports are true

Re: Close Season Football Chat : Tue Jun 15, 2010 11:16 am  

Although there were reports that Cole had signed a deal with Arsenal. United are linked with both Cole and Ballack.

If any other team would like to release a couple of players so we can sign them without having to spend too much it would be greatly appreciated.

TIA.

A done deal. Its a very strange one, has Ben Haim signing writing all over it. We still need another winger to go along with Malouda.

Ballack is the type of midfielder you need imo. A big 6ft who goes in to the tackle 100%. Dont think you need J.Cole, especially with his wage demands.

Yeah, don't get me wrong, Ballack is a class player. I wanted us to sign him before he joined you. I'm not sure if it's the right move now though. But there again, I'm hoping Hargreaves is going to be fit all season.

LOL.

Of the two I would take Cole, Ballack has been a disappointment at Chelsea and Cole might fit in well. Could even play in the hole behind Rooney.

Re: Close Season Football Chat : Tue Jun 15, 2010 2:31 pm  

I can't see either player improving the Man Utd squad a great deal, Ballack isn't the player he was and Cole has always flattered to deceive for the most part.

I'm sure they'll both do a job, but they cry out as cheap signings of biggish names hoping most of the fans won't notice.

Re: Close Season Football Chat : Tue Jun 15, 2010 2:44 pm  

Not too keen on Cole to be honest. Especially after hearing an interview with him the other week saying how 'a player like me should be playing 90 mins every week.'
